February 2026 delivers cold nights—and spectacular skies. In this episode of The AstroGuy Podcast, Wayne walks you through everything to watch for in the night sky this month.
We take an in-depth look at NASA’s Artemis II mission, the first crewed flight toward the Moon since 1972, including mission objectives, the historic crew, and how you can follow the launch live with our community coverage.
This month’s Lunar Feature of the Month highlights the fascinating crater pair Messier and Messier A, known for their unusual shapes and some of the most linear lunar rays on the Moon—plus a look at the legacy of Charles Messier himself.
Our deep-sky tour explores the rich but often overlooked constellation Monoceros the Unicorn and it's myriad of deep sky objects. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced observer, this episode is packed with observing tips, history, and inspiration to get outside under the winter stars.
